Except Cersei is CLEARLY saying no throughout the scene so I'm not really sure there's any way I could be misunderstanding it...if someone is saying no then they aren't giving consent so it's rape. There's literally no other way this scene can be interpreted.

Besides all forms of literature are open to interpretation and even the author of the books this series is based on has come out and said the scene wasn't how he wanted it to be.
